The INA Board of Directors is pleased to announce the appointment of Louise Dunham on Monday, April 15. Her enthusiasm and energy will be an asset to this year’s board.
Louise Dunham is the Managing Director of Placement Solutions, a Melbourne, Australia based niche recruitment firm celebrating its 25th anniversary of specializing in In-home childcare, and household management. In 2001 Placement Solutions became an inaugural provider of the Australian government DEEWR approved In-home care program that offers Childcare rebates (both CCB and CCR) to eligible families.
In addition to her work with Placement Solutions, Louise served on the National Steering Committee which composed the Australian Interim In-home care standards that are used to set quality guidelines within the in-home childcare industry in Australia. She is a passionate advocate for the need for in-home childcare to be developed, and recognized, as childcare professionals have a valuable role to play within the greater childcare sector.
In 2011 Louise also set up Just Family Nanny Payroll Services Pty Ltd to assist both her regular clients, as well as other clients employing In–home childcare providers.
In 2013, Louise was honored with a 25 year service award pin for her service to the International Nanny industry. Louise is extremely knowledgeable after 25 years experience in our industry, and her addition to the INA Board of Directors, and committee chair of International Membership will greatly benefit INA.
